Higher Education - Free for all or Fee for all?

Education discussion - Free for all or fee for all? ================================= We don't need no eduflation ================== Remarkable isn't it, that there has been an on-going upward trend of exam passes for now 27 years. Yes who can smell a very large kipper? - That is a whole generation of young people who is apparently cleverer than their previous year. Baffled and confused; well your not the only one. It is just amazing what alco-pops can do to your brain-cells under exam conditions. All those young people hammered out of their skins, collapsing on pavements in a heap, forgetting who they are, perform magically well when under the ...  Read the complete review

When I went to college it was a full time course, from Wednesday to Friday, 8:30 til about 5:30. For the course I payed £88 Materials and then £60 for a travel pass for the year. This was all quite good as it was reduced from quite a lot as the government payed it as I am under 19. I have carried on my course this year and had to pay £750, which was very steep, and that without all the exam fees. I went to ask for help with this, and I got it all sorted to pay just £120 plus £95 for exams, which came to £215 in the end, which is a lot better that the £750. I'm still under 19 tho so why do I have to pay for my exams? Is there any possible help to re-claim this ...  Read the complete review

I've found this to be a doubled edged sword, as I would very much like to take higher education and get a degree, but recently I have found that universities are "blacklisting subjects" meaning that some subjects are pointless in taking and they look down of pupils with a-levels or GCSE's in those blacklisted subjects, this came as great disappointment to me, as I'm soon to be finishing my A-levels and I am looking to university, however I have now found that half my a levels are blacklisted and the subject I wished to take is also blacklisted, the subject I'm talking of is law, I had thought law would be a great subject to take, yet apparently not, however I ...  Read the complete review

Education should be free for all. Educated people progress further in life and they are more likely to help the country and create jobs. Education gives you better understanding of things. People without degrees do well as well but in my opinion less of them do well in comparison to degree holders and it takes longer for them. I know it is not possible to do free education for all. There are far too many people and there will be people who abuse the system. Still country will be better off with more degrees and training for everyone. UK is falling behind other countries in education. This is bad for all of us. Students coming out of uni ...  Read the complete review
